[ENG] Closing in on FOUR HUNDRED Members!

Post by Dead Parrot »

According to the stats tonight there are 393 registered members for the board. The numbers grow weekly.

This is GREAT stuff, I only wish more folks would post. :wink:

It's nice to have this community to fall back on to discuss our common interest. Thanks everybody for sharing. Before the internet I thought I was the only one who utterly mesmerized by this.


:P DP

I'm forced to agree with both of you. It's makes no sense at all to have so many members... and so little who contribute, which is why recently Mickflux started eliminating lurkers and leeches on his FH&S board. There should be NO excuse for not posting anything. Whether it's photos, videos, experiences, stories, whatever it is... YOU CAN DO SOMETHING.Image

Well... i agree with all of you but... based on my experience, it's a well known problem of ANY kind of forum really... :) most of members just like to read, or to get pictures...and don't know how /don't want to contribute...

Personally, i'm glad we have so many members...and i'm glad there are so nice people who continously try to make this place a nice board to come everyday. THank you guys :)


Ah...by the way...don't know if you noticed, but there are some major troubles with avatars (impossible to update them)...i'll sort it out this weekend i hope, sorry about that :)

How about this:

The number of legitimate posts ppl post on the forums, the more videos and downloads they will receive. That way ppl will be forced to post things. It is like earning their right to download. I dont know if you understood me on this but if you dont, just tell me to reword it or something.

This was a suggestion I was a little iffy about. Like there are upsides and downsides to this. The upside is that more ppl will post on the forums. The downside is that ppl may find this a little too much crap and may not join at all, slowing down the rate of newcomers.

So its up to you nyllover to decide.

Hope you get that problem fixed!

Well Waddup... this issue keep coming up every now and then... but i'm always of the same opinion... i don't want to force people to do anything... there is already a little thing they are forced to in order to see attachments in the forum, and that is to subscribe to it.... other than this...i don't really want to force them to do anything else... especially because i would hate to see millions of posts similar to "this is good!", "yeah", "well done!" and so on :P

As i said before, i'm already happy of the forum as the way it is...if people wants to contribute, they will do it...if they don't want...well it's up to them, they are not making any damage right now....only if in the future we will have bandwidth problems i will do something...but right now...we are fine...last month we used 300GB of bandwidth...and i have 1000GB to use each month! :P :P :P

But whats the point of becoming a "member" if you are not going to contribute?In my opinion a "member" should post at least once a month.If you take the time to become a member it shows you love footsie,dangling etc. and you probably had experiences that should be shared.THERES NO EXCUSE!IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO CONTRIBUTE THEN STAY A "GUEST"Nylover, quality is more important than quantity.

Well said footsiefreak! Couldn't have put it better myself! :D Quality is much more important than quantity!
This is nyllover's website so he gets to decide how things should run. And I agree that you should do something later when the bandwidth increases. There's bound to be many unactive members to eliminate.
The amount of people joining can be good as well. It indicates us that we are getting more popular by the minute! Therefore, we could be well known to everyone soon (whoever is a foot fetishist or interested in this subject). But it tells us we are doing very well.
Congrats to that nyllover.
